Adding albums
I’m getting some real data from Spotify now. I started by pulling the saved albums and it didn’t work as expected. I thought that the saved albums endpoint would include every album where I’ve saved a song, but it seems like it only includes the albums when you save the entire album at once.
So I decided to pull the saved tracks instead. This requires more calls to the API, but it appears to reflect what’s in my Spotify library more closely. The goal is still to keep track of albums, so I was able to re-purpose some of the code I wrote at first. I added the albums on the home page just to show something interesting:
Next, I’ll work on collecting artist information and then comparing to find albums that are missing.
